Synopsis
Atop a mesa one mile west of downtown Flagstaff, Arizona, sits Lowell Observatory, an astronomical research facility steeped in tradition. Percival Lowell, scion of a Boston Brahmin family, initially established his observatory in 1894 to study the possibility of intelligent life on Mars. Lowell widely popularized his controversial theories, sparking debate among both the scientific community and lay public. In the following years, the observatory's astronomers made several discoveries that dramatically altered our understanding of space, including Clyde Tombaugh's discovery of Pluto in 1930 and V.M. Slipher's detection of the expanding nature of the universe in 1912. Decades later, Apollo astronauts visited as part of their training to fly to the moon. These stories and others offer a glimpse of the scientific discovery, community pride, and personal triumph that define Lowell Observatory.

- 5***n (148)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseFraudster seller. The product pictures do not correspond to the cheap and useless product I received. I bought a Classic film Collection and O got a documentary about US National Parks instead. I want my money back. Please, eBay. Do not validare such a fraud and support a disappointed customer who was fooled.Reply from: jays_bookstore- Feedback replied by seller jays_bookstore.- Feedback replied by seller jays_bookstore.While it is true that a picture of a box of DVDs was displayed on the product page, the title clearly stated the particular DVD for sale (which is "The Grand Staircase Collection" a single, documentary DVD not a collection of DVDs). Instead of contacting me to resolve the issue, buyer left a negative feedback followed by a series of angry emails in rapid succession. This is uncalled for since I offer free returns.
